Netanyahu and Macron

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and French President Emmanuel Macron exchanged harsh words after a phone call between them regarding the conflict between Israel and Hezbollah.

The French president said that the Prime Minister of Israel should not "overlook the decisions of the UN", recalling that the state of Israel was "created" by a decision of the UN.

"Mr. Netanyahu must not forget that his country was created by a UN decision," Macron said, referring to the November 1947 vote in the United Nations General Assembly on the plan to partition Palestine into a Jewish state and Arabic. "And now it is bypassing the UN resolutions," he continued, commenting on the ground intervention of Israeli forces in southern Lebanon, where the UNIFIL peacekeeping force is stationed.

Macron, who has called for a ban on arms exports to Israel for use in Gaza and Lebanon, warned that now is not the time to ignore UN rulings.

Despite international criticism and calls for a ceasefire, Israel continues its offensive in both Gaza and Lebanon.

France has also condemned Israeli fire against UN peacekeepers in southern Lebanon.

Netanyahu claims that Hezbollah was using UNIFIL facilities and positions as cover to launch attacks on Israel. On Sunday, he called on UN chief Antonio Guterres to send peacekeepers to safety "immediately".

Netanyahu's response

The Israeli prime minister responded to the French president's comment, telling him that the creation of Israel was the result of the 1948 "war of independence" and not a UN decision.

"A reminder to the president of France: it was not the UN resolution that created the state of Israel, but the victory achieved in the war of independence, with the blood of heroic fighters, many of whom were survivors of the Holocaust...", the office said. of Netanyahu in a statement.

In the phone conversation between the two leaders, Netanyahu also said he opposed a "unilateral ceasefire" in Lebanon because it "would not change the security situation."
